In the Dordogne, we eat turkey as a symbol of this conquest (tastes just like griffin).<br /><br />@S.P.: Hmm, sounds good to me. Then there's D&D meets Doyle and Sherlock as wizard: "It's Elementalism!"<br /><br />@Loquacious: Yes... must have been purely for aesthetic reasons here.<br /><br />@Dangerous Brian: I respectfully disagree with the examples you've given - Edinburgh's cliffs are not as sheer nor as high above the surrounding land as the above image implies and in looking at photos of Stirling I do not see crenallations on the cliffside of the structure! :P<br /><br />@Chris: Last time I went was to Dawn of the Dead (remake) in 2004. At this point it's getting more difficult to go back just due to the novelty of having not been there in so long.<br /><br />@Christian: But flumphs are Lawful Good! You mean to say you're evil? Huh. All this time.ze bulettehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15603716850479808633noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2326833531919898477.post-91744506580748460172011-10-30T18:39:12.733-07:002011-10-30T18:39:12.733-07:00I think I will summer there next year.

I thought Mr. Burton's Alice and Wonderland was a bit over the top. I'm certain that Sally wants to see that new Holmes film too.Chris Creelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15993487911122629839noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2326833531919898477.post-15754641752567155972011-10-30T17:43:27.833-07:002011-10-30T17:43:27.833-07:00That said, Edinburgh and Stirling castles both loo...That said, Edinburgh and Stirling castles both look out over sheer, stony cliffs. They have battlements overlooking the cliffs too. And damn, but right down through history did they need them.Dangerous Brianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11494853825931603065noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2326833531919898477.post-86415085601732928672011-10-30T16:06:19.639-07:002011-10-30T16:06:19.639-07:00Who doesn't love battlements?Who doesn't love battlements?Loquacioushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01667591498679385934noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2326833531919898477.post-74595471324132455332011-10-30T14:42:46.247-07:002011-10-30T14:42:46.247-07:00The prospect of Doyle and Howard cross-over fictio...The prospect of Doyle and Howard cross-over fiction just made my brain bleed.
